South Dakota Democrats are continuing their strong efforts at fundraising, with statewide events not netting a ton of cash, but it’s providing far more returns than the Republican Party is able to.
And they actually have things like events & employees.
As noted, $43,104.03 raised, against $28,256.07.. and about 20,000 additional in kind donations that were used to raise funds, leaves South Dakota Democrats with $47,701.51 in their federal account.
But again, most important, they are showing an active and engaged donor base, which unfortunately I can’t say my side of the aisle seems to be able to come close to with the current management of the South Dakota Republican Party.
That is going to be a problem when we get into the hot part of the election season, when the party will desperately need money for party billing activities.
Non-Republican parties are meaningless in our one-party state. Republican candidates will likely sweep again even without a functioning party.
